From One Mother to Another

Dear Expectant Mother- I am a birth mother who chose Rodrigo and Kremy in January, 2022 but sadly the pregnancy took a turn for the worst in March, and we lost the baby.

As a 37-year-old mother, I can state this with absolute certainty and life experience— there is not a couple I have ever met that is more deserving of this gift.

I asked them very tough questions over the last few months and with every answer, my decision felt more than right that they were the perfect parents for my baby.

If I could give them 10 babies, I would. They will cherish and love every inch of your baby and will never take this gift for granted.

They will allow you to lead the way and choose how you want the adoption to be, whether open or closed. They will respect every wish you have surrounding the adoption.

They were not going to be just adoptive parents to me, they were going to be family. They are open-minded, loving, caring, stable, healthy, active, and VERY ready to be parents.

Your baby will have many life experiences that most children are not afforded. Your baby will learn other languages which will provide many opportunities in life for your baby.

Your baby will get to live the life they want to live and be who they want to be, which is rare in today’s parenting.

Whether you are a young mom or an older mom like myself, I want you to have peace of mind knowing you are making the right decision with this couple.

I am not a biased family member providing a referral.  I am one of you. So, from one mother to another, please bless this couple with the gift of life.

Our Story and Path to Adoption

We met in early 2009 at a bowling alley while playing with friends. Our relationship started as a friendship, and three months later our great friendship grew into a more affectionate love and is now a binding marriage.

Early in our relationship Kremy shared with Rodrigo that she was adopted as a newborn, and that she wanted to someday adopt and give a child the same love and devotion that she was raised with by her parents and family. Rodrigo’s love and desire to build a family and his understanding that adoption is an act of unconditional love made our decision easy.

Looking forward to building a family, we soon found out that we have infertility challenges as a couple. We worked on infertility with lots of faith and positive attitude for years, with no success; it took time and energy, but our love for each other grew stronger.

A child will make our life and family complete! A child will bring us a deeper purpose in life. A child will give us motivation to achieve even more in life, just so we can give back to them and see their happiness and hear their laughter every day. Children look at the world with such wonder and excitement and get fascinated by every simple thing. We are eager to explore the world together with the same wonder and enjoy it through your child’s eyes.

Love, respect, trust, and communication are what we treasure very much in our relationship, and we will use them as a foundation to build a loving and strong home for your child.

We are both very anxious and extremely excited to be on this adoption journey!

About Kremy

From Rodrigo:

When I talk about my wife, I am talking about a precious gift that walked into my life in early 2009 and the more I got to know her, the more I admired, respected, and fell in love with her. Kremy is the most generous, loving, and thoughtful person I know. She makes me a better person, and she has motivated me throughout our life together.

Kremy has made me proud so many times during our marriage, but her love and devotion to children, kindness, and caring for people, make me very proud of her every day. She nurtures our two godsons with so much care and love, that I know in my heart she will be an amazing mom! I can imagine how she will play with your child on the playground, climbing the slide and running around with them. I can see her cooking and teaching them our family traditions, crafting Christmas ornaments, and all of us decorating our home for the holidays to look festive and cheerful.

From Kremy:
I, Kremy, love to cook and explore new meal recipes. My mom is a great cook, and she has taught me that love is the best ingredient for cooking a good meal! Growing up, most of my extended family lived in the same neighborhood, and every day was like a holiday for me and my cousins enjoying grandma’s food and playing outside. I was adopted as a newborn and I am an only child, but my cousins are like siblings to me.

I am very lucky and blessed to have had such great parents and extended family who raised me with unlimited love and devotion. Holidays, like Christmas and New Year, always included a feast of food, and were cheerful and loving times. Santa used to visit us with not only one, but two huge sacks of gifts for all the kids. I grew up spoiled and loved by my entire family, and I am very attached to them. My parents have always guided me to explore and develop my abilities with additional activities and summer camps which helped me to discover my love for computers, science, and sports.

About Rodrigo

From Kremy:

Rodrigo is my rock and best friend, and he never ceases to amaze me. He is very responsible, honest, and always smiling. He is compassionate and yet strong and protective!

Early in our relationship, I shared with him that I was adopted as a newborn. Rodrigo’s love for family and his supportive, loving, and happy character helped me to feel even closer to the man I was falling in love with. I felt all the devotion, respect and love he gave me when we moved in together, so I have no doubt that he is the love of my life! He gave me an elegant picture in a frame that states ‘Always kiss me good night,’ and we have not missed a day reconfirming this promise to each other. I see the love and happiness in him every time he plays with our godsons, and the protective and caring attention he gives to them.

It melts my heart imagining how he will be with your child! He will be a wonderful dad, caring and loving, reading your child bedtime stories, tucking them in and always kissing them good night.

Rodrigo’s love for family and his supportive, loving, and happy character makes him the perfect partner to build a family with. A day does not go by without him making me feel loved and lucky.

From Rodrigo
I, Rodrigo, grew up in a cheerful, big, and giving family. Family gatherings were always a lot of fun on the weekends and during the holidays. After school, I used to go to my grandparent’s house and meet my cousins and neighbors, so we could play soccer together. I still enjoy playing soccer with friends.

My family has always been committed to helping children in the community. I have an adopted cousin who I grew up with, and two neighbors’ children who my mom took care of for more than ten years. My parents are very sweet together, they still hold hands and admire each other. They taught me what love, respect, and honesty means, and I will pass these values to my children.

I have learned how to manage responsibilities and goals in life during a part-time office job I took one summer vacation in high school. This job helped me develop my computer skills and a love for finance which are part of my career today. I also enjoy taking on projects at home to make improvements, and I ready to lend a helping hand to friends when they need it.

Our Families and Friends

Our families are our foundation!

We both grew up very close to our families, and we see them often. We enjoy celebrating holidays and vacations with all of them! Our families come from different parts of the world, and our languages and cultures are all wrapped together with love and support for each other.

Thanks to technology, when our families are away, we talk to them and video chat daily. When Kremy’s mom is not visiting us, they cook together via facetime. The grandparents-to-be are very excited and ready to take the honorable title, and they are ready to spoil and love your little one.

We are always around family and friends. Our friends are family to us, and they have lived and walked next to us since we first met. Our friends’ children and our godsons can hardly wait for a little special one to join our family and to play with them! Our families enrich our life with positive energy and love. Our families are ready to celebrate birthdays and holidays together and express all the love they have for your child!

Our Home and Neighborhood

We are blessed to have a beautiful and love-filled home. Our house is full of love, laughter, lots of friends, soccer, and music! We enjoy having family and friends gather around to enjoy Kremena’ s good food and our Brazilian BBQ. Our cheerful home is waiting for a special child to make it complete and fill it with toys. Outside, we have a spacious backyard to play and run freely. Our godsons and our friends’ children love playing there and swinging in the hammock. We all appreciate resting in the hammock in the shade on a beautiful, sunny day. We are blessed to have a beautiful home, full of joy, smiles, and homemade food. We cannot wait to fill our hearts and home with a special little one.

We live in a quiet, family-oriented neighborhood. Our neighbors are kind, and we help each other. We are a block away from an open mall with shops, restaurants, and a farmers’ market where we shop local produce. Right in front of our neighborhood is a big park with a kids’ playground, two soccer fields, sports courts, and a daycare next to it. Across the road is our club house with many amenities, swimming pools, a small library, and a kids’ activities club. We love the Halloween party and hunting for Easter eggs there with our godsons. Our friends and our godsons always join us at summer-end party in the community club, city fairs and Christmas events. We are eager to take your child to all these places and events and to see the smile and wonder in their eyes will mean the world to us.

Our Sweet Puppy

We have a mini goldendoodle puppy. His name is Cooper, and he is a very loving, energetic, smart, and friendly dog. He loves to run with us and enjoys being outdoors and playing together with his favorite toys. Cooper is very friendly; he gives hugs not only to friends and family but also to his dog friends. He loves playing with kids and gets very excited playing with our godsons. He won their hearts from day one and quickly became a favorite play buddy. He enjoys cuddling and giving them warm hugs and kisses too. Cooper is looking forward to a new family member to protect and play with.

Our Last Vacation

For our most recent vacation we spent 2 very festive weeks in Brazil! We celebrated Christmas and New Year with Rodrigo’s family and had a wonderful time! Rodrigo’s family lives in a farm area, and we loved picking vegetables and fruits in the farms! The town is a place with divine nature, great people and delicious, freshly cooked food! We spent time with Rodrigo’s family, and enjoyed fun, quality time with his aunts, uncles, cousins, many good friends and neighbors! We had lots of fun visiting the recreational, nature park where we played bottia, enjoyed the refreshing water park, and fished in the lake. On this active, exciting and entertaining vacation, we saved a night for ourselves and had a date downtown! It was the vacation of our dreams to spend this holiday season with Rodrigo’s big family in Brazil.

Our Lifestyle

We enjoy being active! Happily, the beaches are just a 15-minute drive from our home. Our families visit us often and the Disney World parks are absolutely on the schedule. Like us, our entire family loves Disney and the Magic Kingdom. Also, every year, we get the summer pass to visit the Safari, the Zoo and the Aquarium, and love to get splashed by the dolphins there. Our friends say that we are grown-ups, but we keep the child alive within us. There is so much to show to your little one here and to enjoy all these places with them!

We cherish family and friends’ gatherings and holidays! We like being outdoors and enjoy playing badminton and soccer, jogging, and the beautiful beaches nearby. At the same time, we also appreciate little things like taking a walk, coffee dates, cozy rainy days, a good movie and reading a nice book at home.

Another passion we share is to experience new places through food and activities, even if it is just a weekend away to a local spot to get out of the city. Luckily, we live in Florida, and short road trips can take us to hidden paradises and small fishing towns. During our last 3-day weekend we spent a day in the Kennedy Space center, and we drove back on the west coast of Florida and enjoyed time at St. Petersburg, Naples, and few small fishing towns, where we got fresh fish for lunch.

We desire very much to be parents and to present the world to your child in a creative way with everlasting memories. We are looking forward to teaching them the great values of love, faith, and family, and to run and play with them!
